DJ Skee Predicts Best Hip Hop Album Grammy Winner

    AXS TV put together a panel to predict the winners for the upcoming 2015 Grammy Awards.

    The Best Rap Album category was handled by DJ Skee, who shared his thoughts on each of the six nominees.

    Wiz Khalifa’s Blacc Hollywood was the deejay’s final choice, but he gave some consideration to Iggy Azalea’s The New Classic.

    “Look at Iggy Azalea,” Skee says. “If she wins there’s going to be riots in the streets. If you thought it was bad when Macklemore beat Kendrick last year…”

    According to Skee, Schoolboy Q also “has a shot at it” but he doesn’t think enough people know who the TDE rapper is. Childish Gambino is “a little too under the radar” and the deejay was unaware that Common released an album last year.

    “Iggy will probably win it,” he says, before switching his answer. “I’m going to go with Wiz winning this.”

    AXS TV debuted the broadcast of its the “2015 GRAMMY Prediction Special” last night (February 3). The program was hosted by Mark McGrath. DJ Skee, Bob Lefsetz (“Lefsetz Letter”) and consumer research company CivicScience’s CEO John Dick debate this year’s top GRAMMY categories.

    The air times are:

    1. Wednesday, Feb. 4 at 9pE/6pP
    2. Thursday, Feb. 5 at 8pE/5pP
    3. Saturday, Feb. 7 at 6pE/3pP
    4. Sunday, Feb. 8 at 9:30aE/6:30aP

      1. THE GRAMMYS ARE ALWAYS ABOUT WHO SELL THE MOST RECORDS. IT’S NEVER TALENT. IT’S ALWAYS RECORD SELLS. SAME AS BILLBOARD AWARDS.

    1. aint no one starting a riot over a hip-hop grammy, its not the first time and it wont be the last that the better albums get passed over if not completely snubbed

      1. that’s the drake effect. if you fuck with drake, then he will make sure you fall into obscurity. that’s why dj skee (and millions of other people) didn’t know common put out an album last year.

    2. We are expecting Iggy to win. I actually don’t watch the Grammy’s and would hope that other brothas wouldn’t either. These Khazarians have an agenda..everything that is happening now has already been written. One.

    3. hmm not much choice there, out of all the albums released last year this was the list of the best? Fuck outta here.

    4. When it comes to hip-hop the grammy’s always get it wrong. This is all about mainstream popularity not about Quality hip-hop music!!
